#Excerpt: FAIREST OF THE FAIRE by Susabelle Kelmer

Excerpt:

“Who said anything
about a relationship?” he said, standing up so he could tower over her again. “I’m
just trying to have a little fun. You know, fun?”

If he’d been an
animal, she was sure he’d have had hair raised on the back of his neck, he
seemed so angry, and it struck her painfully. She hadn’t wanted to anger him or
hurt him. She turned away from him and closed her eyes to tamp down the tears
she knew would come if she let them. She crossed her arms over her chest, to
hold in the pain. Being tired made her much too vulnerable.

Despite herself, she
felt the shivers of desire race down from her shoulders, down her arms and
legs, and back up to that secret, soft place at her core. She bowed her head
and gritted her teeth, hoping for the feeling to go away.

“And what is your
plan, Gage?”

“It’s a simple plan.
I want you to feel good. I want to feel good, too.”

Schoolteacher
Connie Meyers is suddenly a young widow, her husband killed in a horrific car
accident. Heartbroken to find out he had gambled away everything they had, she
moves to her sister-in-law's Midwest home to rebuild her life. A trip to the
local Renaissance Faire with her nieces leads to a summer job as a costumed
storyteller.

Avowed
bad boy and fair performer Gage Younglood is infatuated with Connie at first
sight. Despite his deliberately commitment-free life, and Connie's
don't-touch-me attitude, he soon has her in his arms, realizing quickly she is
also in his heart.

When she
is threatened by her late husband's bookie, he steps into the role of
protector, his fate forever sealed with hers.
